Accreditation Standards: By the Numbers!

Once again, it was a busy summer of accreditation visits for camps hoping to gain ACA accreditation and those wanting to maintain their current accreditation status. Below is an initial overview of summer 2013.

All of these standards involve some sort of required written documentation.

The National Standards Commission (NSC) reviews this information (along with other questions and/or comments that have been raised over the summer) and uses it to inform additional areas of education needed, revisions and/or clarification to standards that might be appropriate, and the identification of trends.

The NSC met September 15–17, 2013! Watch for an update from that meeting in an October issue of ACA Now.
